Add Atheism info box to all atheism related talk pages (use ((WikiProject Atheism)) or see info box)
Ensure atheism-related articles are members of Atheism by checking whether [[Category:Atheism]] has been added to atheism-related articles – and, where it hasn't, adding it.
Try to expand stubs. Ideas and theories about life, however, are prone to generating neologisms, so some stubs may be suitable for deletion (see deletion process).
State atheism needs a reassessment of its Importance level, as it has little to do with atheism and is instead an article about anti-theist/anti-religious actions of governments.
Secular movement defines it as a being restricted to America in the 21st century.

Given that Simone de Beauvoir was a major influence on existential thought it's strikingly odd to put 4 men in the image in the lead up to the subject. Macgroover (talk) 04:58, 16 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I second this and suggest de Beauvoir replace Dostoevsky. Patrick J. Welsh (talk) 03:57, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I came here to suggest the same in relation to major global influences on this school of thought (e.g.,I wrote a small section on black existentialism). I would further recommend the image in question be removed until a more accurate and representative picture can be found. Otherwise let us leave it blank and rather link to individual pages - non representation should never be a lazy default, especially since it is misleading and inaccurate.

Agreed – I added a new version with Dostoevsky replaced by de Beauvoir. It uses ((Multiple image)), since I couldn't be bothered to make a proper collage myself. Not sure if there's any disadvantage to doing it this way. Jhvx (talk) 13:03, 13 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Good.The page needs to diversify; it is too narrowly focused on European thought. This page is about 'Existentialism', not 'European Existentialism'. Archaeoknowlogy (talk) 14:02, 13 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Why Beauvior to replace Dostoevskij instead of Sartre? I think French are overrepresented 151.57.134.52 (talk) 02:50, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Giacomo Leopardi was 19th, not 20th century... looks like he got added late to this list at some point? 185.104.139.72 (talk) 17:35, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
